I am racking an IPA into my secondary today and this is going to be my first time dry hopping. Can I still use gelatin to clear out the beer or will that mess up the process?

Hefeweizen, so clarity is not a major concern

What is the difference between day 6 and 7, cant I just Keg it with one day to go?

I am more concerned with it raising the amount of bitterness, or will that not be affected

If I were to want to increase the amount hops added for flavoring by say 1/4, how much would that impact flavor and aroma?

so I just fill the hose and chiller with sanatizer and pull the plug when i am ready to start? I dont see how clogs would be an issue.

is it possible to run the wort through the chiller via gravity and a SS racking cane or do I need a pump?

It was off for about 3-5 min, but this thing was spewing yeast and foam like a model volcano. I dont think there will be any problems, it was still going like that well after i fixed the clog in my blow off tube

It was loud and funny, but should i be worried about contamination?

What is the best way to take a hydrometer reading after my beer has been transfered to the primary fermenter?

I am new to brewing, moved my latest project to primary this morning but i forgot to take a measurement with my hydrometer. should i go back and try to draw some out of my carboy or just not worry about it? I also ended up with less than 5 gallons, should i try and top off?

is it bad for the wort to be exposed to open air after boil, during transfer to primary?

thanks everyone. I am doing my first brew- an all grain bavarian hefewiezen.

I know quite well not to cover my boil kettle during the boil. but what about after flame out, during cooling?
